Hello all,
I have an old Thorens TD 126 mkIII / Linn K9 combo that I want to play on an inexusably low tier Marantz SR 5500 receiver. I explained how this came about to happen in this topic.
I still have my audiophile speakers Triangle Meridien. They play well on the Marantz, but obviously it's not what I remember from the days when I had my Linn Majik/LK-100 setup.
As the Marantz doesn't have a phono IN, I am debating the following phono preamps:
The big question is, no matter how good the preamp, will the Marantz be able to unleash its quality to my ears? So which preamp would please me most?
Thanks, Pete

As the Marantz doesn't have a phono IN, I am debating the following phono preamps:
- DAP PRE-101, €33
- NAD PP 2, €120
- Pro-Ject E
- Pro-Ject box S, €149
- Musical Fidelity V90 LPS, €180
